Patch. I'm also revising Doc/using/windows.rst, but I don't want to delay the initial reviews. I don't think this is perfect, but it works well enough for the first alpha (scheduled for 8 Feb), so I want to get it in and stabilised now rather than at the last minute. There'll be more features and work to do. There's a README.txt file (which I'll attach next) that has an overview of the installer. It'll be worth reading that first before looking at the code. And apologies if the code makes no sense. I'm happy to explain sections, but WiX is about 90% magic (and the rest is MSBuild magic) and so any explanation is likely to be unsatisfactory. I've been working with both of these pretty intently for the last few years and I still don't feel like I've mastered them...
Updated patch, and hopefully it will make it into review this time. I deliberately excluded the image for the using/windows.rst documentation but you can see it at http://imgur.com/CdQaBmp
